Tina Turner has passed away at the age of 83 – after a tragic life including the death of her son and an abusive ex-husband.
The Queen of Rock and Roll passed away today after a long battle with ill health, but her life had been full of tragedy. Her son Ronnie passed away at the end of last year at the age of 62 whilst her son Craig died back in 2018 at the age of 59 in an apparent suicide.
She has also battled ill health for a number of years – including a stroke, kidney failure and intestinal cancer – and spoke of her mental health suffering in the wake of the abuse from her ex-husband Ike Turner. Tina also had opened up about her own suicide attempt.
